RE: Your Favorite Caliber
My favorite caliber is .308 due to the wide bullet selection available in this size. My favorite cartridge that utilizes this caliber would probably be the .30-06 with the .300 Win mag coming in a very close second.

Favorite caliber is .264 (better known as 6.5mm). Favorite cartridge is .260 Rem followed very closely by 7mm-08 Rem.
I really think I like the new .338 Federal, but I'll need to get one to find out...

RE: Your Favorite Caliber
I don't know if I have a favorite; I like them all.
My new .280 AI shows a lot of promise. I've shot great groups with my .338-06 and killed a black bear with it. I killed the majority of my whitetails with my dad's .30-06 and .243. My heavy barreled .223 is accurate as all get-out and fun to shoot. My .375 H&H makes big holes that are easy to see on the target at 100 yards.
How can I forget the .22LR? I don't even have to save my empties!

I love shooting .22LR's. I don't know why. They are just fun to shoot. Especially semi-auto's. For deer hunting I would say the .243 since i've only killed a deer with a .223 and a .243. Can't wait to take the ol' 30-30 out in the field along with the .270.
